Partition Setup for Dual Operating Systems
Partition Setup for Dual Operating Systems
For Ubuntu as it should function with ext4, this guide provides all necessary details. Refer to the TechSpot article for a step-by-step beginner's installation guide.
Just to be sure, I went through the partitioning process for Debian... so don’t worry too much.
Open Disk Manager, select the drive you want to partition, click on it, and choose the partitioning options to create a new partition.
You should reduce the drive size in Windows first, then partition it using the Ubuntu installer. Set it to Ext4 format and create a ~4GB swap space for virtual storage. Use the root partition for your main files. Partitioning without shrinking will cause problems with Windows installation.
I'm not familiar with the process, but I can try to help you with shrinking it. Let me know if you'd like guidance!
You might require additional tools depending on the issue you're facing.
